This patch teaches Emacs how to use the X11 DOUBLE-BUFFER extension to
avoid showing the user incomplete drawing results. Without this patch, I
can make Emacs flicker like crazy by running isearch for a piece of text
unique in a buffer and holding down C-s. With this patch, Emacs does not
flicker no matter what I do to it.
The patch also stops flickering that occurs when using the "solid
resizing" feature of some window managers --- i.e., when the WM redraws
windows as the user drags their edges, as opposed to displaying some
kind of bounding-box in lieu of the actual window contents.
I've tried to avoid changing the logic in the single-buffered case
(which we still support), and I've also tried to avoid touching Cairo
rendering. This patch should work with any toolkit --- I've tested GTK+3
and no toolkit at all.
A few notes:
* We do a buffer flip at the end of redisplay instead of in
x_update_end() so the user never sees the completely-cleared state that
we enter immediately after clear_garbaged_frames(). x_update_end() does
do a buffer flip if it's called outside redisplay. I've added a new
terminal hook to support this hack.
* The DBE documentation claims that XClearWindow and XClearArea clear
both the front and back buffers. It's a lie. In my experiments, these
functions clear only the front buffer.
* XFT stops drawing after we give XftCreateDraw a DBE back-buffer and
the size of that back buffer changes. To work around this problem, we
discard any caches XftDraw object we might have to a frame after that
frame changes size. I haven't noticed any performance problems.

patching file configure.ac
patching file src/Makefile.in
patch: **** malformed patch at line 60: $(LIBSELINUX_LIBS) \
And indeed, the patch shows:
$(LIBXML2_LIBS) $(LIBGPM) $(LIBS_SYSTEM) $(CAIRO_LIBS) \
$(LIBS_TERMCAP) $(GETLOADAVG_LIBS) $(SETTINGS_LIBS)
$(LIBSELINUX_LIBS) \
$(FREETYPE_LIBS) $(FONTCONFIG_LIBS) $(LIBOTF_LIBS) $(M17N_FLT_LIBS) \
It looks like the typical text wrap problem. There are more cases like
this.
Could you send the patch as an attachment, please?

The patch applies fine for me with git apply --reject --ignore-space-change --ignore-whitespace double-buffer.patch. Maybe that works for you too?
Cheers,
Clément.

Hmmm... no:

This is brillant! I applied the patch and everything seems to work great: all of the cases in which I usually see flickering (I tried resizing windows, running a process in the background, and isearch) seemed fixed :)
Congrats on this very nice patch :)

Without this patch, I can make Emacs flicker like crazy by running isearch for a piece of text unique in a buffer and holding down C-s. With this patch, Emacs does not flicker no matter what I do to it.

I've added a new terminal hook to support this hack.

You should not use format=flowed when posting patches.

What happens in the case where redisplay_internal did its job, but
update_frame was interrupted by incoming input? Won't that flip the
buffers unnecessarily?
I have some comments below. Apologies if some of them stem from my
relative ignorance of the issues involved in this changeset.

Do we need XDBE_CFLAGS? They seem to be unused?
Also, I think the fact that Xdbe extensions are used should be shown
in the summary displayed by the configure script when it finishes, and
XDBE should be added to the list in config_emacs_features, so that it
appears in EMACS_CONFIG_FEATURES when appropriate.

Why do we need this flushing? Is it relevant to the patch, and if so
why?
I'm asking because we had some bad effects with some fonts due to
flushing the frame's font caches, see bugs 24634 and 24565, for
example, so my bother is that this will reintroduce those problems.
Also, the call to font_flush_frame_caches is unconditional, although
only one font back-end supports it. That seems to incur a gratuitous
overhead of a function call for the other font back-ends.
In any case, please add a commentary to each function you add with a
summary of what it does.

This will call the hook for each frame, every redisplay cycle. By
contrast, redisplay_internal many times updates only the selected
window of the selected frame. Is calling the hook for all the frames
really needed, or should we only call it for the selected frame in the
latter case, or maybe just for frames that got updated? Also, should
we distinguish between visible and iconified frames?

No need for braces here, since we now require a C99 compiler.

We had bad experience with conditionally compiled struct members. Is
it possible to have these members always defined, and set them to some
no-op values when XDBE is not supported? (In general, run-time tests
should IMO always be preferred to compile-time tests, as the former
make extensions and future development easier.)

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Why such a strange definition? Won't it cause compiler warnings in
some cases, like when it's used as an lvalue? We use some quite
paranoid warning switches on master.
If there are problems to have a simple definition for this macro in
the non-XDBE case, I'd prefer to have inline function(s) for the
problematic cases (e.g., comparison), rather than a tricky macro.
Thanks again for working on this.

I thought about that, but didn't want to overwhelm users with noise.
I'll add some more user visibility here.
The other question I had for myself is whether it makes sense to let
users enable and disable this functionality at runtime: it's hard to
think of a legitimate use case that doesn't involve a bug somewhere, and
I'd rather fix the bugs.

Maybe I need to come up with a better name for what this hook does. It's
specific to the XftDraw surface issue I mentioned in the preamble to the
patch: without this code, rendering of text stops working (text
rendering silently fails to happen) after a frame resize.
We're not flushing the caches implicated in bigs 24634 and 24565. I'll
add some comments explaining what's going on.
I suspect it's a bad interaction between XRenderCreatePicture (which Xft
uses internally) and the behind-the-scenes pixmap adjustment that DBE is
doing that drives us to this hack.

We're testing whether the hook function is non-NULL before calling into
it, so only that one backend gets the call. In any case, the overhead is
trivial --- it's one indirect function call compared to all of
redisplay. (Every call into a shared library is the same indirect jump.)

The hook only does something in the case where someone called update_end
and we demurred on actually flipping the buffer because we knew we were
in redisplay and would be getting redisplay_end_hook shortly. That is,
if we update only one frame, we're only going to do one buffer flip.
Or are you worried about the function call overhead? That, as I
mentioned above, is trivial.

If we do, we should do it in the code that performs the updates, not the
code (the snippet immediately above) that publishes the updates we've
already done.

If we put xdbe_major and xdbe_minor at function level, the names leak
into function scope. With braces, they exist only around the call to

The point is to make the build fail in the non-XDBE case if you try to
use it as an lvalue. If draw_desc is going to actually exist in the
structure in all cases, the strange definition is moot, since we'll
always use the other one.

The code is more clear with the test before the call, otherwise the
code reader needs to look in the hook to understand when it's a no-op.
So I'd prefer to have the test outside of the call, or even outside of
the loop.

That might be so, but what you say above is in no way apparent from
looking at the code. IME, it is very important to have the idea when
something is being done and when not just by looking at the code in
redisplay_internal; having to find that out by realizing that some
flag is set in update_end and then tested in the hook makes the code
more subtle and its maintenance harder. It's not like keeping this
detail from redisplay_internal makes this detail local to some
functions, or somesuch, so there's really no reason to conceal it,
IMO.
> Or are you worried about the function call overhead? That, as I
> mentioned above, is trivial.
No, I worry about maintainability of the display code and about
lowering the risk of bugs introduced due to such subtleties.

See above: I don't like such dependencies and find them in general an
obstacle to understanding the overall logic of the display code. I
don't mind adding a test in update_frame and friends, but that
shouldn't prevent us from having a similar (or even identical) test
here.

How can it fail transiently? And why turning off supports_xdbe in

We use that in many other places, so I think these precautions are
misguided and generally make our coding style less apparent.

But the test (of whether the hook exists) _is_ before the call. What are
you proposing?
some_backend_needs_flush = False
for backend in font_back_ends:
if has_flush_hook(backend):
some_back_end_needs_flush = True
if some_back_end_needs_flush:
for backend in font_back_ends:
if has_flush_hook(backend):
backend.flush_hook()
That's silly. Can you elaborate on what you consider a cleaner approach?

See below. I don't think that giving font back-ends an opportunity to do
_something_ in response to a frame being garbaged in certain ways is a
bad thing.

This sentiment strikes me as being analogous to the old "no use of hooks
in Emacs internals" line --- yet we have facilities like syntax-ppss
that rely on hooks in core, and it's worked out fine.
We need to do a buffer flip at the end of redisplay for each frame on
which update_end was called during redisplay. If someone calls
update_end _outside_ redisplay, we should do a buffer flip
immediately. The code I've sent is the cleanest way of implementing this
model short of changing how update_begin and update_end work.
I think thhat what you're proposing is a layering violation. It will
make maintenance harder. The only facility that cares about the
has-a-frame-been-updated state is the X11 double-buffered back-end, so
making xdisp track this state makes everything more complicated,
especially because xdisp already has a "needs redisplay" flag and
shouldn't need to keep track of a separate "needs buffer flip" flag.
It shouldn't have to care. That's not its job.

I'm also worried about maintainability: that's why I don't want to make
redisplay_internal any more of a big ball of mud than it already is. I
think it's cleaner to have xterm keep track of state only xterm needs.

What dependency? You're proposing adding a lot of complexity to the loop
that calls redisplay_end_hook, and I still have no idea what this
complexity is supposed to accomplish.

It's an allocation. Allocations can fail. And XDBE isn't guaranteed to

Let's assume that neither of us makes silly proposals, okay?
> Can you elaborate on what you consider a cleaner approach?
I meant the test for the lone font backend that needs this kludge, not
for the existence of the method. And also a comment that tells it's a
kludge whose need we understand only empirically. I'd even prefer a
direct call to the function when the font backend is the one which
needs it, rather than having a method created for the benefit of a
single backend, whose necessity we don't really understand.
When I read the code which tests whether a backend has a method, I
need to look up the methods of the backend(s) I'm interested in to
know whether they have such a method. When a method is defined for a
single backend, most of those searches will produce a trivial result,
i.e. a waste of my time. I prefer that we make this evident at the
place of the call instead.

I'm not saying the code won't work. I'm saying it could make its
purpose more evident, which is better for long-term maintainability.

Even if update_end was called for a frame whose update was "paused",
i.e. whose redisplay was interrupted by incoming input?

I'm asking whether flipping the buffer for a frame that wasn't updated
or was updated partially can do some harm, like produce incorrect
display.

My problems start with the name of the hook, which doesn't hint at all
that only double-buffered X11 back-end cares about that. If the hook
was called something like double_buffer_flip_hook, or was compiled
only if HAVE_XDBE is defined, this issue would go away.

I don't know why you decided that it isn't xdisp.c's job. It already
has a lot of flags that other parts set to get xdisp.c do or not do
certain parts of its job. Why not let it test a flag here as well?
Such a test will tell the reader that the call to the hook is only
done when a flag (with hopefully some descriptive name) is set, so the
reader can understand what the hook is doing and under what
circumstances without actually looking at the hook, which involves
first finding out which frame types support it, and what exactly does
it do.
IOW, if the code speaks for itself, it makes maintenance of this
hyper-convoluted piece of Emacs easier, less time consuming, and less
error prone.

It's too late for that. It's already an extremely complex and hard to
understand piece of code. Hiding more information from its logic
makes the code harder to maintain, not easier. We are not talking
about highly-modular package, where the logic is kept local to each
module, and the interfaces between them are kept to the absolute
minimum. xdisp.c _knows_ a lot about how xterm.c and xfns.c work.
You cannot disengage them without a complete rewrite.
So the principles you are trying to apply, while a good idea in
general, in this particular case make code harder to understand and
develop.
Of course, it's not a catastrophe, so if you are going to go to the
barricades over this, I won't fight you. I just hope you take my gray
hair from many readings of redisplay_internal as some evidence that I
know what I'm talking about. The number of times I needed to go deep
into the called functions just to realize that the code does something
completely different from what it looked on the redisplay_internal
level is beyond imagination.

How much memory is being allocated, and correspondingly what is the
probability this allocation could fail on a healthy system?
And what about my second question?
The downside of your proposed code is that we will try to turn on XDBE
each time hence, and each attempt means a potentially costly series of
calls to catch X errors, and the XdbeAllocateBackBufferName itself.
I'm asking whether it wouldn't be better to simply give up on XDBE in
such a case for that frame. It could be much cheaper, no? Just a
thought.

So we want to write?
for font_backend in frame.font_backends:
if instanceof(font_backend, XftBackend):
xft_refresh_hack()
That still strikes me as less clean, especially considering we'll have
to provide the xft_refresh_hack to general-purpose code.

Longer-term, I think we need to move toward greater, not
lesser, modularity. With some explanatory comments,
Besides, there's no reason other window systems can't use this
hook. Looking briefly at ns_update_end, for example, I see that we call
flushWindow; we shouldn't have to do that until redisplay_end_hook.

Right now, we do a buffer flip unconditionally except in the case that
we `goto end_of_redisplay`. I think that's a bug actually --- but I have
to understand more of what this logic is actually doing.
Why _do_ we have a path that short-circuits the rest of the redisplay
code? What would happen if we just removed it? It appears to be some
kind of optimization, and I'm not sure it's actually necessary
(especially since, according to the comment, we disable it anyway in the
case of a blinking cursor).
I suppose you could make an argument for not doing a buffer flip if
redisplay is interrupted by input, but I'm honestly not sure what might
go wrong there, and my preference would be to act as much like the
single-buffered case as possible and default, if we're unsure, to
showing the results of our painting efforts to the user.

Probably, but I don't think it can be worse than what we currently
have. I'm trying to be conservative and hold as few updates in the back
buffer as possible. The only reason I added the end_of_redisplay stuff
is that the resulting flicker reduction in the window-resize case is so
dramatic that I think it's worth the extra complexity.

I'm beginning to see your point. I just don't agree that the problem is
intractable. We're going to need to clean this stuff up, especially if
(in the distant future) we want to support multiple window systems in
the same Emacs build.

I don't know --- I've never seen it fail. I'm just applying general

It's only on frame creation though, and frame creation is both rare and
already expensive.
By the way: aren't most calls to x_catch_errors already buggy? AFAICT,
they don't generally call x_sync first. The purpose of this mechanism
is to run a section of code in such a way that Emacs doesn't die if
something goes wrong in Xlib, but since Xlib error reporting is
asynchronous anyway, use of x_catch_errors without a preceding x_sync
(as I have in my code) can silently swallow X errors that we _do_ want
to kill Emacs.
Anyway, the double-buffer code has a few kinks I need to work out. I'll
send another version of the patch after I figure out what's going on.
1. [must fix] during frame creation, on one of my computers but not
the other, I momentarily see an all-black frame with a small white
square, and only a few hundred ms later does the normal frame content
get draws
2. [must fix] on the same system, and not the other, after resuming
the system from sleep, Emacs frames momentarily display all white
before the usual frame contents get filled in
3. [should fix] on the same system, and not the other, resizing the a
frame interactively still produces some flicking, particulary in the
modeline, but much less than without the patch entirely.
This flickering appears to have something to do with XRender, since if
I force everything to use X11 core rendering instead, I don't see any
flickering at all.

At the very least let's have a comment there saying that this is a
kludge that's actually done only for that font driver. (Comments tend
to fall out of sync with the code, so making code speak for itself is
better, but a comment is infinitely better than nothing at all.)

I agree, but IME such a move cannot be piecemeal in this case, it must
be done in one go, or in a small number of large steps. IOW, it's a
significant job on its own.

It's an optimization for the case that nothing needs to be
redisplayed.
But I wasn't asking about that, I was asking about this part:
pending |= update_frame (f, false, false);
If update_frame returns non-zero, we don't mark all the windows as
having accurate display, which will cause redisplay to be re-entered
again on the first opportunity, and it will then try to redisplay all
of them again. I was asking whether flipping in this case is TRT.
Without double buffer, what happens in this case is that we could
momentarily flash a partially redrawn window.

That's why w32term and nsterm are largely modeled on xterm (and the
same with xfns), right to the point of literally repeating many code
fragments.

That's for some X expert to answer, I really don't know enough about
this stuff. Ken, can you comment on this?

Possibly related to the fact that when Emacs starts, it first defines
a small 10x10 frame, before resizing it to the actual size. Look for
"10" in make_frame.

Could be Emacs waits for an expose event before redrawing the frame,
and meanwhile you show an empty buffer?

If the flickering is on the modeline, a breakpoint in
redisplay_mode_lines should tell you why it happens.
Thanks.

x_catch_errors itself starts with an XSync call to ensure errors on previous requests are processed with the default handler. Then x_uncatch_errors does another at the end of the region to make sure any errors generated by requests within the catching region are processed. There’s also x_uncatch_errors_after_check, which I added specifically for cases where x_uncatch_errors was being called immediately after x_check_errors, which also does an XSync, so we could drop one round-trip (which was a performance issue for me in certain cases).

Below is a new much-improved version of the patch. It should address the
legibility concerns while probably adding more. It addresses all the bugs
I've been able to find and on my machine, produces buttery smooth editing
and resizing.
The patch has become a bit broader now: the biggest change is making GTK
toolkit scrollbars into independent X windows, as was the original
intention of the code, and getting rid of a lot of logic that tried to
order Emacs and GTK paints in such a way that we wouldn't clobber what GTK
drew.
Now that GTK draws its scrollbars in its own X windows, we can update the
main X window without having to queue or wait for GTK to do its drawing.
Specifically, we don't have to worry about buffer flips clearing
scrollbars off the screen or trying to get GTK to render scrollbars onto
our back buffer. This independent-X-window scheme was always the
intention, AFAICT, because we put GTK scrollbars in event boxes --- but
it'd bitrotted over the years thanks to GDK optimizing GdkWindow to not
create an X window unless you specifically ask for one, which we do now.

I've renamed the xftfont hook to something that reflects what's actually
going on --- dropping XRender surfaces. I noticed that the Cairo back-end
has similar calls for a similar purpose --- see the calls to
x_cr_destroy_surface.

There was indeed a bug: we were forgetting to do a buffer flip after
redisplay if nothing changed except mouse highlighting. (But that bug was
masked by others.) Now, in the double buffer case, we bypass the "goto
end_of_redisplay" case by putting the frame up for redisplay if we change
the mouse face.

I don't think it is --- now I've eliminated the terminal hook I added.
It's sufficient to rely on frame_up_to_date_hook and calls to flush_frame
to do buffer flips.

Now, we don't need an additional hook.

As Ken mentioned, I just missed the XSync call in x_catch_errors, so Emacs
is fine as it is.

This bug ended up being a deep rabbit hole. The initial white square is a
200x200 default for GtkWindow's idea of its own size in the case that it
has no children with non-zero size. Early in frame creation, GTK and X
disagree on the size of the frame; GTK thinks it's 200x200, so when it
paints its background in response to the first Expose event, it draws a
200x200 white square. It's not just my patch: Emacs always behaves this
way. You usually never see it, though, because we XClearWindow on wfixed
immediately after, and if you're not unlucky, the X server coalesces GTK's
weird 200x200 paint and Emacs's background clearing, so the user never
sees anything but a white background.
If you take trunk Emacs today, run it with GDK_SYNCHRONIZE=1 in the
environment, and step through xg_create_frame_widgets, you can see the
same initial white square.
My patch doesn't fix the problem. It works around it the same way Emacs
did previously, by clearing the window quickly on startup. The fix falls
out of fixing the Expose-event handling logic.
We really should figure out why GTK is so confused about the size of its
window. If we do, we won't have to rely on winning a race to present a
good experience to users.

We weren't doing a buffer flip in response to Expose events.

The flickering was coming from a combination of things: we weren't
clearing the Xft surface cache aggressively enough, and redisplay had a
longstanding bug where we'd lose track of whether we'd drawn the cursor
just after drawing a garbaged frame.

This worries me a bit: FRAME_GARBAGED_P returns non-zero for TTY
frames very frequently, whereas at least the comment seems to imply
this is needed only for GUI frames, perhaps even only in GTK builds.
If that is correct, then perhaps add a FRAME_WINDOW_P test here, to
avoid unnecessarily slowing down redisplay.
Thanks again for working on this.

By the way: why would we ever _want_ to allow redisplay to return
without having redrawn all garbaged frames? The design of redisplay
suggests that a postcondition on redisplay_internal should be that
there's nothing left to draw, at least in the case that we weren't
interrupted by input.

Thanks for working on this.
I tried building with that patch, and had problems because your email
client munged the patch. I cleaned it up by hand and arrived at the
attached patch instead. (It needs a better commit message of course.)
Maybe next time you could attach the output of git-format-patch.
Although the resulting system builds under Fedora 24 x86-64 with GTK, I
can't tell any difference in flickering. I don't see much flicker
without the patch, or with it. (I am using X, not Wayland.) Maybe my
eyes are not good enough....
I don't see the need to expose double-buffering to Lisp via
x-double-buffered-p or inhibit-double-buffering. Unless there's a
demonstrated need, I'd remove these from the Lisp interface, to simplify it.
The configure.ac change should use AC_CACHE_CHECK.
set_up_x_back_buffer should be a static function, since it's not used
outside its module.
In C code we typically use comment /* like this */, not // like this.
Also, the spacing for pointer decls is typically 'type *id', not 'type *
id' or 'type* id'.
You can assume C99 for loop control, e.g., 'for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
...'.
Thanks again.

I get a lot of flickering myself on Linux Mint with Gtk; often in font-lock heavy buffers or while M-x compile is running. This patch solves all of it :)
Cheers,
Clément.

I need to get Gnus working on that machine. I'd hoped Squirrelmail would
have been too simplistic to munge the patch, but I was wrong.

I've found the flickering while editing to be very machine-dependent. It
was driving me nuts on mine, which is why I wrote the patch. Flickering
while resizing seems to be a more general problem though.
I've found I can reliably reproduce the flickering by isearching for a
string that appears in a buffer only once, then leaning on C-s.

I'll feel more comfortable about removing the lisp interface (and so any
way for users to this the thing off) once we're sure it's not
causing problems.

None of the other X extension checks do. I'm sure AC_CACHE_CHECK is
great, but it feels out of scope.

Thanks; it wasn't always internal to that file. I'll fix the function.

Thanks. I thought I'd gotten rid of all of those. Speaking of comments
though: if we're C99-only anyway now, we might as well allow
C99 comments.

Weird. I can't reproduce the flickering problem on either Fedora 24 GTK x86-64
or Ubuntu 16.04.1 GTK x86-64, even though I tried your recipe. I wonder what's
different about my platforms? Anyway, if the code is fixing a real problem on
your platforms and doesn't cause trouble elsewhere, we should install it.

Perhaps mark it as deprecated so that the user knows it might go away?

Maybe, but that would be a different topic, and should be addressed in a
separate patch. For example, we might also need to change our C-reading programs.

Not at that point in the code, which is before update_frame was
called. In particular, the place that detects whether input is
available is inside update_frame.
IOW, redisplay is not going to return there, it is going to call
update_frame, which is the last stage of the redisplay cycle: it
delivers stuff to the glass as needed.

My guess is either your systems are too slow, or the keyboard
auto-repeat rate is too high. This stuff is very timing-dependent,
and in this particular case it depends on the relative speed of
redisplay and keyboard auto-repeat.

Please note that we already have "//" comments in a few places, so if
we don't yet want to allow them, we should remove those.

I also welcome this patch, of course, but for the record, such
flickering should be solved by getting rid of those extra "spurious"
updates, rather than by hiding them behind double buffering.

Spurious updates or not, according to a previous discussion, there's no
reliable way to avoid flickers other than double-buffering:
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=16621#38
Even if we could optimize them out in some cases. As such, I very much
welcome this patch as well.

OK, I did that in the emacs-25 and master branches. If we start adding these
comments, I suggest limiting them to code in the master branch and making the
style change a conscious decision (e.g., when should code use "/*" vs "//"
comments?).
